Here is one that i'd like to get opinions on. I'll show the first photos I took with my phone, and then pictures I took with my new camera.

The coin in the newer pictures has a more original appearance and looks less "cleaned" than the prior pictures. The coin in my opinion has wear. I see friction on the face, neck, fields of the obverse. The luster on the reverse does not look as disturbed as on the obverse but that is probably due to less open areas and greater protection from the design. In your earlier pictures, the hair under liberty and the the wing tips look slightly flat and are of a darker shade than the surrounding silver. IMO, it is a sign of wear. Based on the newer pictures, I think it could grade AU-55. For the price paid, I would be smiling as well. Beautiful coin!

I THOUGHT this looked familiar, you sneak!

Well, since you know what I guessed know what I thought you paid for it, I will have to go with a MS76*.

Awesome coin at an amazing price.

HaHa...I knew that coin looked familiar! My guess in the other thread was based on my thinking it was MS-63 and possibly a little better.
